Adler Likes Squirrels


This morning while I was walking Adler around the block for her morning walk, she spotted a squirrel also known to the AGDs as skiouros. Other furry creatures have scurried in her path before and she's never given chase to those furry friends. But she saw this squirrel from at least 20 feet away and pulled me to the tree that the squirrel had shimmied up. Standing on her hind legs, she looked up at the tree trying to see where the squirrel had gone. The squirrel, sensing that Adler was still around, peered down from one the branches mockingly at the 75 lb. dog who surely couldn't reach him now. But try as she might, Adler put her arms around the thick trunk of the tree and thinking she was a cat, she tried to shimmy up the tree. She would've stayed there all day waiting for that squirrel to come down if I didn't have to go to work. At least I know now that she likes squirrels which makes her a true sorority dog.
